MOUNTAIN HONE.

A Newsy Letter from this Growing
Little T0wn-Windmills Coming into
General Use-Etc.
TO TIE EDITOR or THE TMxs.-
have just received copy Of my
old favorite, the WooD RIVER TIMES.
The house seemed lost without it, and
reading it made me sigh for the noun
tains and their green grasses. Here
at Mountain Home it is ever level
plain of sage-brush as far as the eye
could reach, although if water could
be had the finest farms could be made.
The only water obtainable is Canyon
creek. and this only lasts until the
middle of July but even with this
limited supply there are several good
fields Of tame hay raised. G. Shaw
has . ranch about one mile from town
on which he sowed, early this spring.
alfalfa, and it is now about eight
inches high. If nothing happens he
can cut a fair crop this Fall. Mrs.
Newcomer has nice place a few
miles from town, and adjoining hers
is that Of her son-in-law, Frank Abe,
and here red clover was cut about the
first of July and is nearly ready for
the mower again.
One advantage Mountain Home has
over the other towns on the plains !.
the short distance to water when
sinking for wells. Water is got in
the greatest quantities at from five
to thirteen feet. The people here are
putting up wind mills, to try them.
There are four or five in town. Some
people think they will be a success,
while others declare them a complete
failure; but am full of promise for
them, and think that by getting larger
pumps they can be made to perform
their work to nicely.
There are quite a number of fine
gardens in the town. Mrs. Crandall,
Mrs. Harvey, Mrs. Hagar and several
Others have vegetables of every kind,
and will, in all probability, raise all
their winter supply of potatoes, cab
bages, and such things.
Mr.. Miller and Mr.. Hagar are GU,
merchants, and though their lines oil
goods look limited when compared
with those Of your HALEY merchants
what they have is of the best quality
and price. Both are energetic bust.
ness men and will undoubtedly pros
per. Mr.. Lamb has been our onl,
blacksmith until lately. The business
was more than he could attend to
and Mr.. Johnston has erected fine
large shop and will do his utmost te
accommodate the public.
The people here can boast of fine
schoolhouse. For the population i
is credit. 1t will easily accommo
date the children of Mountain Home
for some time to come. There is NJ
school at present, and I believe there
will be none until the Fall term.
The health of the people is splendit
in general, except that quite numbe
of children have the whooping cough
but SO far they are getting over i
easily.
The "Fourth" passed away yer,
pleasantly. Horse-racing was a feat
ure of the day. Warren Lockman
the Seattle king" rode the winnin,
horses in both races, and he was com
plimented from all sides on his supe
rior knowledge of riding. Firework
in the evening were followed by
grand ball in the schoolhouse, wher
all the bellies and beaux were gathere'
from all the country round.
With many good wishes for you
glorious paper, l remain a constan

1t has been intimated that the object of
the whole affair is to swell the Labor vote
at the approaching election to such an ex-
tent that Mr.. Henry George could then be
in position to make a profitable deal with
James G. Blaine in the Presidential cleo

Henry George was seen at the Standard

"You can authoritatively deny that there
is any deal or agreement either past,
